Like @alice_maitlis' post, @anna_katabi's is a very interesting look at the gendered and classed status of Welsh women married to lascars.

@waahiba_siddiqui's analysis of the worth of ayahs (and other Indian servants) and lascars is astute here. Thank you.

I especially like @alice_maitlis' point about how class was involved in the marital unions that Gilliat-Ray and Mellor discuss. Excellent!
